Re: Left the Switch on overnight
Jamie, the points are probably still god since to drain the battery they would have been closed. Not garanteed but probable.

Re: Left the Switch on overnight
Points look good, coil looks good. Not sure about the battery yet.

Re: Left the Switch on overnight
If at all possible, NEVER let a battery sit dead. Charge it ASAP. Also, once you drain the battery down, don't plan on the charging system to bring your battery back. Even if you get the car started, when you get home put it on a trickle charger for 24 hours. This includes modern cars too. Proper treatment of a battery is years worth of difference in service life. Optima included.

Re: Left the Switch on overnight
X-2 ! Ain't it the truth! If you do not use it to turn system off, well that seems to be human nature ! But, if you install a good cut off switch inside the A (under the seat) and first thing on and last thing off, you will NEVER experience draining a battery...and other bad things !
